When He Insists

Today's Scripture

Immediately after [the miracle of feeding the five thousand], Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and head across the lake to Bethsaida, while he sent the people home. Mark 6:45, NLT

The disciples had just seen Jesus feed five thousand men plus women and children with five loaves and two fish. For Jesus to “insist” that they leave this place of blessing and joy implies that they strongly wanted to stay. Then as the disciples were crossing the lake, they were caught in a great storm that had them in “serious trouble.” Jesus sent them into the storm, then came walking to them on the water, climbed into their boat, and the raging wind stopped. The difficulty brought them into a second miracle to increase their faith.

Sometimes God will take you out of a comfortable situation, out of a place of blessing where you’re seeing favor, and take you into a storm of difficulty that looks like it will defeat you. It doesn’t make sense, but don’t be frustrated. That closed door, the delay, or the trouble is a setup that is moving you into something greater. Great favor, great health, great relationships are on the way. Trust God’s way when you don’t understand.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that You are in control of all the situations in my life, the places of blessing and favor as well as the storms. I choose to let go of the anxious thoughts that trap me in worry and discouragement. I declare that my trust is in You alone. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Signs Will Follow

Today's Scripture

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.” John 14:12, ESV

we’re coming into a time when God is going to show out in greater ways. There are going to be greater works done. The Scripture says, “These signs will follow them that believe.” There are going to be some signs following you—not ordinary things, not what you’ve seen in the past, not what you can do through your natural ability, but awe-inspiring deeds. God will put you in situations where you’re up against what looks impossible. The sickness will be too much, the problem too great, the dream too big. It’s easy to let fear, intimidation, and doubt talk you out of it. This is when you have to remind yourself that you were created to perform greater works.

The apostle Paul says, “You haven’t seen, heard, or imagined what God has in store for you.” Get ready. It’s coming. You have God’s favor and anointing upon you, and you are marked for greatness. He is moved by your faith, and He is going to show out in your life in unusual, uncommon ways. God is about to do something you’ve never seen.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You for the greater works that You have planned to do through me. Thank You that You created me to activate my faith and believe that I can make a difference in the world in greater ways than I’ve imagined. I declare that I refuse to let fear and unbelief hold me back. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Be Bold Enough to Believe It

Today's Scripture

“And now, LORD God, keep forever the promise you have made concerning your servant and his house. Do as you promised.” 2 Samuel 7:25, NIV

God gave David an incredible promise that his family would always be on the throne and have a lasting dynasty. This was more than David could imagine. He said, “God, who am I that You would do this?” He was so overwhelmed, trying to take it all in. He could have stopped there and thought, “That’s impossible. How could this happen?” But David understood that he had to get in agreement with God. The only promises that will come to pass in your life are the promises you let take root. David said, “Lord God, You have declared this over me. Do as You promised.” He was saying, “This seems far out, but I am bold enough to believe it and get in agreement. Let it happen.”

Why don’t you do as David did and say, “God, let Your promises for my life come to pass, blessings that I’ve never imagined.” You don’t have to figure out how it will happen. The “how” is not up to you. All you have to do is believe. That’s when the Creator of the universe goes to work.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that You promised You would do exceedingly abundantly above and beyond what I can imagine. Thank You that You have never failed to be true to Your Word and fulfill Your promises. I believe that You are taking me to levels I’ve never dreamed. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Cover or Expose?

Today's Scripture

Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. 1 Peter 4:8, NLT

The Scripture says God will not promote gossips, faultfinders, or busybodies. It’s been said that every person carries a bucket of gasoline and a bucket of water. When you hear gossip, rumors, or juicy information about someone, you can either pour gasoline on it and cause the fire to spread or you can pour water on it and help put out the fire. Too many people use their gasoline. But even if it’s true and what they did was wrong, “love covers a person’s faults.”

Love doesn’t expose them, doesn’t tell five friends and put it on social media. The mercy you show others is the mercy that’s going to be shown to you. If you’re harsh, judgmental, and expose people’s failures, magnify their mistakes, that same judgment is going to come back to you. You may know things that are true and could make someone look bad, but that’s a test. Can God trust you to keep it to yourself and not damage their reputation? Or are you going to spread everything you know? Cover their fault and pass the test.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You for loving me, forgiving me, and approving me just as I am. Help me to be like You and to do the same with others and seek the best for others. I ask You for the deep love that covers offenses and weaknesses so that I can honor You in everything I do. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Fact-Check

Today's Scripture

To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31–32, NIV

We hear a lot about fact-checking today. We fact-check what a politician said, fact-check the claims of an ad or product label, fact-check internet rumors that have gone viral. You need to fact-check the thoughts that come into your mind against the truth of God’s Word. Compare thoughts such as “You’re not valuable. You’re not attractive” to what God says: “You are a masterpiece. You are made in the image of God.” Thoughts whisper, “You’ve failed too many times. Nothing good is in your future. Just accept it.” You have to fact-check that. “The path of the righteous gets brighter and brighter. God is taking me from glory to glory. I haven’t seen, heard, or imagined what He has in store.” Dismiss the lies and embrace the truth.

The truth on its own won’t make you free. It’s the truth you know that will make you free and keep you free. When the enemy tries to plant thoughts of doubt, fear, or compromise, defeat them with the truth found in God’s Word. Answer the lies with what God says and speak them in faith.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that when Jesus conquered death on the cross, He broke the power of every lie and deception that’s trying to hold me back. Thank You that any stronghold of the enemy is brought down by the power of Your truth. I believe that I am unquestionably free. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

In All Your Comings and Goings

Today's Scripture

You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. Deuteronomy 28:6, NIV

If you follow the life of Joseph in the Scripture, you can see that the blessing of God was on him, and nothing could take it away. His brothers threw him in a pit to die, but the blessing caused the brothers to change their minds and sell Joseph to slave traders. The blessing caused Joseph to excel as a slave in Potiphar’s household, but a lie sent him to prison. The blessing helped him to not be bitter and keep doing his best. After thirteen years of hardship, the blessing elevated Joseph out of the prison and into being the prime minister of Egypt. The blessing was with him wherever he went and in whatever he did, and it sustained him and caused him to rise to the top.

People may do you wrong and put you at a disadvantage, but nothing that happens to you can take God’s blessing. Wherever you are, the blessing is there. Keep doing the right thing, and God will turn everything that was meant for your harm to your advantage. The blessing will always override the curse.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that Your blessing is upon me in all my comings and goings and moving me toward Your purpose. Thank You that Your blessing is going to sustain me through every difficulty and turn anything that is meant for my harm into my advantage. I believe I am blessed. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Power Thoughts

Today's Scripture

“The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.” Deuteronomy 28:7, NKJV

Today you need to pay close attention to what you’re thinking about. Do you realize that you are drawing in what you’re constantly dwelling on? Your thoughts are running your life. Is what you’re thinking about what you want? If you are thinking weak, defeated, “I can’t do it” thoughts, you’re going to feel overwhelmed and get stuck where you are. But if you are thinking power thoughts, such as, “I am well able to defeat whatever comes against me. God is fighting my battles. God parted the Red Sea, closed the mouths of lions, and brought the dead back to life. No obstacle is a match for Him. Something good is in my future,” that is what you get.

God says that He will never let you face anything you can’t handle. He will always give you the grace, the strength, and the faith to defeat the difficulties and enemies that come your way. If you stand firm, they will flee. When you believe, all things are possible. Get your thoughts going the right direction.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that I can take control of my thought life and stop allowing negative thoughts to enter and play over and over. Help me to clear out all the weak, negative thoughts and dwell on what You have to say about me. I will think power thoughts. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Real Victory

Today's Scripture

“The Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me. But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy.” Acts 20:23–24, NKJV

The apostle Paul was very aware of the troubles and imprisonments that were in front of him. But he also knew that real victory is not when God does everything you like. Real victory is not when God changes all your negative circumstances and fixes all the people who get on your nerves. Real victory is when all that happens, but it doesn’t bother you anymore. You’ve grown to the point where you don’t have to have all that to be happy. You’re content while God is working right where you are, knowing that He’s given you grace, not just for the good times, but grace for the tribulations. When there’s pressure, when people betray your trust, when doors won’t open, your attitude is: “I’m going to keep running my race with joy despite what’s coming against me. Yes, there’s a lot of pressure, but I’m still going to give God praise. I’m on a road that I didn’t choose, but God is ordering my steps. I will not let what I want to get in the way of where God is taking me.”

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that I don’t have to be moved by the tests and troubles I face because I know that You are still on the throne. My faith and trust are in You and Your mighty power at work in my life right here and now. Help me to walk in real victory and to finish my race with joy. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

How You See Yourself

Today's Scripture

“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” John 10:10, ESV

When you face unfair difficulties, the enemy will not just try to hinder your destiny, he’ll try to steal your identity. He’ll try to deceive you into letting your environment—how people treat you, disappointments, delays—dictate who you are. If they cause you to see yourself as limited, not valuable, unworthy, that will keep you from your purpose. He’s not after your possessions; he’s after your identity. If he can control how you see yourself, he’ll limit your future. When you’re in a negative environment, don’t let the environment get in you. You’re not defined by your environment.

Sometimes God leads us into difficulties, allowing bad breaks or people to do us wrong. You know that God has a great dream for your life, but how you see yourself will determine whether you stay in the difficulty or come out better. Don’t take on a victim mentality and let it change your identity. God is going to use it to move you into greater levels of your destiny. You are a victor, an overcomer, more than a conqueror. You can do all things through Christ.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that when the enemy comes trying to steal my identity with doubts and fears, I can resist him, firm in the faith. Thank You that he does not have any power over me or who I am. I declare that I will not be intimidated into backing down, and I will overcome the lies. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
